Icebones: Mammoth Book Three

There is a flat, sharp, close horizon, a plain of dust and rocks. The rocks are carved by the wind. Everything is stained rust brown, like dried blood, the shadows long and sharp. This is the Sky Steppe. This is Mars.

The colony on Mars has failed and the last colonists have returned to Earth.

Icebones, daughter of Silverhair, the one adult mammoth taken to Mars, has been released from cryogenic storage by the departing humans. Icebones alone can lead the mammoths to inherit the fabled Sky Steppe.
